Here's some quick pics of the ruike p801 and the Kershaw injection for size comparison. I have both and I prefer the ruike hands down. If you can't tell in the pics the ruike is thinner than the Kershaw and it holds an edge longer. The ruike is on bearings to the Kershaws Teflon washer so it's much smoother.
Hope this helps.
 
That Ruike looks like it came out of the exact same factory that is making the 910 Land. (sebenza clone)

There are details that are identical, such as the blue thumbstuds, the jimping on the lockbar where you release the lock. That shot of the knife from the spine down with the blade closed the two knives are nearly identical.

I don’t support clones but the 910 was a very well built knife for the price. Get the Ruike. It seems like the Ruike 801 is the way to get the quality found in the 910 Land without buying a ripoff design.

If my suspicions are correct than the Ruike will be a WAY better value and more impressive than other knives in its price catagory.
 
I like that Ruike 801 a lot. I am not familiar with their folder, but have an F118 Jaeger fixed blade, and it is a VERY nice knife.
 
Great pics PWatkins PWatkins . I have a Injection 3.0 and totally agree... P801 FTW!

I really don't find it heavy at all. The steel handles are so thin it really isn't bad, and feels solid.

I cannot believe nobody has suggested any of the Tangram knives. I have the Amarillo and Santa Fe, and the manufacturing quality is just ridiculous considering they cost $60 total. They now have a new button lock folder out too. Thin and slicy, the Acuto 440 feels like a good 440C (tad easier to sharpen), and they are just all around great.

I didn't realize that you had already mentioned the Tangram's. I guess it will show that more than 1 person likes them

Have I got the knife for you, the Kizer Tangram series. They have a few new models I bought the Santa Fe, what a great knife for the money. They have a few different models to choose. They are light and sharp as hell.
You can only buy them @ 1 place and I can't say who but if you do a search you will find them easily.

That's all well and good, but what do you think of the Kizer Tangram series?
 
You can get a Leek from Kershawguy for 35 bones shipped. Dave's also got a robust selection of Kershaws with mild cosmetic defects for $35 or less that I personally think cannot be beat.
 
Check out Skif Knives. They're a Ukrainian Company. Imported knives but very affordable and comparable to Kershaws. A gun store out of Tennesee sells them. I'm getting 2 next week. Lots of youtube videos also worth checking out.

Check out the Kershaw leek for sure. About as small and slim as you can get, and with all kinds of options. An SS one is about $35, they cut great, have one of my favorite steels, and are very compact. I would also suggest the dividend but it has a lesser steel imo and is more money.
 
Do you have personal experience with these? I'd be interested to hear your thoughts if you do.
